The Westside Music School of The Salvation Army is a ministry of Santa Monica Corps. The school is a weekly, instrumental, and affordable music school that gives youth of the Westside an opportunity to study music as a discipline. At this time, the school consists of volunteer teachers who teach 4 different primary instruments enabling a student to learn two instruments every week (Piano, Brass, Guitar, and Percussion). The emphasis of the program is music reading and to encourage young people to be involved in their school music program. If one is not provided at the school level, we hope to keep them fresh in their playing at The Salvation Army. Here is some basic information about the school:
